House Drops Gasoline Tax From Energy Package
The Democrat controlled House voted 29 to 167 to remove gasoline tax provisions from its energy package. The Ways and Means Committee had proposed a 71 to 3 cent increase, but the House deleted the tax entirely amid opposition from Rep. Bill Alexander and concerns about rural impact. Supporters argued other parts of the plan could still advance an energy policy despite the setback.

Instant TV replay aids stroke detection at Pitt
University of Pittsburgh researchers adapt instant TV replay to study brain blood vessels. Dr Joseph C Marten says electronic radiography provides a road map of the brain beams using a magnetic disc recorder linked to X ray equipment enabling stop action X rays for precise viewing during neurosurgery. The technique, developed at Presbyterian University Hospital, allows insertion of minor instruments through small skull openings for highly accurate vascular imaging.
